-Four Ira INNS Rurned.

LOUISVILLE, KY, Jan. 17.--At 2:15 a. IN.
to-day as a special freight train Of nineteen
ears, loaded with cotton, was pulling into Pa
ducah, KY, on the line of the Cheseapeake
Ohio Il Southwestern railway, one of the cars
was discovered to be on fire. 1t was the fff-
teenth car back from the engine, and had
been taken on locked at Memphis, being
transported from the Louisville, New Orleans
Il Texas road at that point. The engineer
backed the train onto side
track and the crew enGeavored to
eXtingush the flames with hose attachments
All they succeeded in doing, however, was to
prevent the fir G from spreading to the other
cars. While removing the debris of the
burned car four dead bodies charred beyond
recognition were discovered. They are sup
posed to have been tramps. Whether white
or black it is impossible to say. The car was
locked at Memphis, but the men must have
entered to their horrible fate through a win
dow in the end, which could have been opened

the room trying to make some compromise
with Williams, of Burleigh, who is neck
and neck with Mckenzie in the scheme a
roasted turkey has just been brought in
and the half furnished representatives are
squabblng over its bones. The only way the
matter can be patched up is for Dr. Stewart
to resign the chairmanship of the railroad
committee and allow the speaker to
appoint Hobart to that Office. 1t is prob
able. however, that Hobart will not agree
to that now, as he is red hot for revenge and
on the winning side. 1t is question if
the move on the part of North Dakota is a
wise one. even if they win their point, for
when it comes to making appropriations,
South Dakota can make some move on the
call of the house and
STOP LEGISLATION COMPLETELY.
There is blood in the eyes of both fac
tions, and from now to the close of the ses-
sion it will be war to the knife North
Dakota has never been so jublant since
the day she won the capital location fight.
THE DEADLOCK BROKEN.
II p. m.-The deadlock is broken. At a
few minutes past 10 o'clock Stewart, of Fall
River, made motion to adjourn, whichwas
declared out Of order by the speaker. y An
appeal from his decision was taken and lost.
Similar motions and motions TO suspend all
proceedings were made at frequent inter-
walls. and each time the minority side would
gain vote, until a few minutes ago the
North weakened They wanted sleep and
refreshments. When Stewart repeated his
motion to adjourn the speaker overruled it
as usual.
AN APPEAL
was made from his decision, and the motion
carried. This leaves South Dakota Just
where she was this morning, in danger of
being outdone by some new scheme to-
morrow. DR.. Stewart, chairman of the
committee on railroads, agreed to resign
and give Hobart the position, but the latter
would not agree to it. The mighty seven
have evidently started out in search of gore,
and propose to have it before they
give over. Hawk and Mcdowell, two
of the absent North Dakotialls
came in tonight on a belated train, and had
Elliot come with them North Dakota would
hold the power of legislation in the house
OF representatives in the hollow of her hand.
1t may be that Elliot's tardiness will lose
her the victory. though the solons will not
sleep before they have scheme cooked and
dried with which to worry the house to-
morrow. 1t is merry war.

ence IN a Mad House.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 17.-Mrs. Emmons
continued her story to-day, beginning with
her experience at BlOomingdale asylum.
When she was taken there DR.. Nichols was
absent and did not return for nearly a
month. Meanwhile DR.. Brown had tried
to make her take medicine which she be-
lieyed was doing her harm. She deceived
her nurse and concealed the medicine, and
began then to get better. DR.. Brown dis
covered that she had not taken the medi-
cine and came to her and said he would
make her take it. and talked of stomach
pumps and things of that kind. She said
she made up her mind that he could not
make her take it.
WELL she went on, ''he was stronger
than 1, but made him take a dose of that
medicine. He took it and I did not see him
for three days. When he came back he was

couldn't do the same thing again. She said
while in the hospital she tried to forget, or
not to hear, the shriekS of people who were
really mad. So she tried to amuse and help
the poor people about her. That" she said,

she went on, II heard the shrieks of those
who were really mad, and then l decided that
1 must have sleep or go mad myself" She
said that the lights used to be put out at 9
o'clock. In order TO have something to oc-
cupy her mind she learned to write in the
dark. She used to write little stories and
every kind OF nonsense that came into her
head. Mrs. Emmons then gave an account of
her removal to the Butler hospital at Provi-
dencd, her release and her return to Wash

Phenomena Agitating the Dvvellers
in the Forests of West virginia.


HUNTINGTON, W. Va, Jan. 17.-About q
week ago reports were received from coun-
ties in the southern part Of the state, saving
that loud detonations had been heard and
violent tremors of the earth felt along the
valley of Big Ugly Run, a tributary to the
Gagantalle river. The explosion occurred at
night, and produced great CONSERVATION
among the people of the region, but no plaus-
ible reason for it could be assigned. A letter
has just been received from Lincoln county
however, which clears the mystery. The let
ter says that few days ago, while lumber
men were floating logs down Big Ugly creek,
they came to an obstruction which did not
exist when they passed up to cut
the timber month before The
bed of the stream was completely filed
with huge fragramts of stone, neatly sepa-
rated, while similar fragments were strewn
about among the timber at the foot of the
mountain. down the side of which they had
evidently been rolled, as the timber and
underwood was much broken. The top Of
the mountain mainly on the side towards the
stream showed huge crauer-like scar, and
the observers could see large column of
steam arising from it. The lumbermen were
afraid to venture up, but reported the dis
covery at Hamlin, the county seat The
letter says the whole country is excited over
the matter. and 1t is regarded as the source
Of the tremors and explosions heard and felt.
